untitled poem 2001-04-17
I don't know why I'm Keeping an online journal It's not as if these weekly Bouts of me foaming at the mouth Aren't enough of a diary Of my life And it's not as if I don't damage The atrophied brain of the collective populace Enough with my countless hours Of rambling while intoxocated And freak out anyone who Would habe considered me a friend When "true confession" time comes around Are these not criminal enough? Must I spead my disease nationwide? Across the seas even? How many people can I offend With the mere mention of thier names? It's not enough, say I If someone is offended by something I say They probably should take note of it Because a lie only really hurts the lier And if I speak true And it hurts Perhaps you should look into yourself Discover why it hurts Do what you can to change that part of you Hopefully becoming a better person in the process
I know that people tend to kill the messenger Like Juheshuva Martin Luther King Jr. John Lennon Ghandi I could list names for days And in the end It always comes to the same thing That perhaps if people had listened A change for the better could have been made But instead Your Jesus was nailed to A couple of pieces of wood And his message perverted MLK Jr. Shot And his message used by the corrupt To give an excuse for hate John Lennon, also shot His message became an excuse for hedonism Ghandi as well And his message all but ignored So listen for once Find something important To take with you And for the bloody sake of all that's good Try to be extra nice To at least one person each day Because it makes being nice To everyone that much easier What a bunch of tripe ~M
